Abstract

The topographic relation between focal spikes and neuropsychological deficits in children with benign partial epilepsy (BPE) was investigated using magnetoencephalography (MEG), electroencephalography (EEG) and MRI in a study of 27 children at University Children’s Hospital, Tuebingen, Germany, and University of Trento, Italy.
